Research Data Survey

Academic and research staff at Queen’s have been emailed the link to an online survey about research data, which is being conducted by Information Services. This Questback survey should take no longer than 5 minutes to complete and all responses will be anonymous.

The aim is to help Information Services investigate research data practices at Queen’s. This will enable us to meet the needs of researchers by quantifying the scale of the technical infrastructure that is required, identifying any training needs, and determining the level of advice and support that should be provided.

Research data is defined as “that which is collected, observed, or created in a digital form, for purposes of analysing to produce original research results”. Even if you do not consider that you hold research data we would still appreciate your input.

Information Services will donate £1 to Macmillan Cancer Support each time a member of staff completes the survey.

The survey will close on Thursday 31 January 2019. Please contact Dan Holden (d.holden@qub.ac.uk) if you have any questions.
